MAS Youth of Maryland and University of Maryland Muslim Students' Association Present

A story of epic proportions ... of loyalty and treason, of truth and deception, of sincerity in the clutches of evil.  This is no tall tale - it is the story of a real man facing real challenges, and succeeding when he had every excuse to fail.  It is the story of ambitions and dreams, followed by the perseverance to make them reality.  It is the best of stories - the story of the noble Prophet Yusuf (Joseph).

Join us for a riveting discussion of the Quranic exposition of his life, as we go behind the scenes of the actions to extract practical lessons and implement them in our own lives.  Join us as we bask in the light of his legacy and seek to mimic part of his greatness and good character.  Join us as we interact with the Quran at a deeper level than we ever have - and aspire towards a closer relationship with God and a life of piety and righteousness.

It's not often that one gets to bear witness to the start of a movement. It's even rarer when you get the chance to help make it happen.

But here we are, faced with the beginning of a campus-led movement to divest from companies that profit from the occupation of Palestinian people and land. A movement made up of people of every race, ethnicity and religion all compelled by an overwhelming sense that divestment is the right, the moral, and the just thing to do. A movement that started with a call from Palestinians, moved to places of higher learning in the US like Hampshire College and the University of Michigan, and is now catching on in places like Georgetown, Brown, and the campuses of the University of California.

On Wednesday April 28, in just one day, not one but two separate college campuses - the University of California at Berkeley and at San Diego- will be voting on the question of divestment and occupation.

Students at UC Berkeley will  again try to overturn a veto of their original 16 to 4 pro-divestment vote. And the students at UC San Diego will put their resolution- nearly identical to that of UC Berkeley--before the student senate for the first time.

Already nearly 6,000 of you have shown your support of UC Berkeley students by signing this statement and making sure we represent your name on a bright green statement at the hearing. Let's do the same for the students at UC San Diego.
